Sixty five political prisoners have been transferred from Diyarbakır D Type jail to Edirne F Type Closed prison. 

The transfer had been planned for Tuesday evening but fog prevented it. The prisoners were then transferred on Wednesday afternoon.

In the past two days some 138 political prisoners have been transferred.

Dispersion is not new as a tool of repression both of prisoners and their families. Because clearly for a prisoner to be transferred thousands of Km from his/her home town means further burden and problems for his/her family. Long journeys are often not affordable for the families, both economically and in terms of transport.
